Why You Need a Tax File Number

A Tax File Number, which is commonly called a TFN, is a unique number that has been created by the Australian Taxation Office. It is used to manage your tax and superannuation records. If you have been given a Working Holiday visa, you can apply for a TFN online through the ATO website. The application, which takes about ten minutes, is free. Your TFN will be sent to your Australian address by post within 28 days. It is very important that you get a TFN before you start working. If a TFN has not been provided to your employer, you will be taxed at the highest rate, which is currently 45 percent. Your TFN is a personal number that should never be shared on social media or given to strangers.

📍 ATO Online Service
⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have recently applied for my TFN through the ATO website, and I found the process to be straightforward. The online form, which is written in simple English, was easy to follow. I was asked for my passport details, visa information, and the Australian address where the TFN would be sent. The whole application was completed in about 15 minutes. A confirmation number was given at the end, which should be saved for your records. My TFN arrived by post after about three weeks. The only problem that I experienced was that the website was a bit slow during peak hours. I would suggest that you apply early in the morning or late at night. Overall, this is a service that has been well designed for international visitors.

TFNとABNの違い

TFNは雇用されて働く人のための番号です。一方、ABN(Australian Business Number)はフリーランスや個人事業主として働く場合に必要です。「Are you employed or self-employed?」と聞かれたら、雇用なら「employed」と答えましょう。

スーパーアニュエーション(super)って何?

オーストラリアでは雇用主が給料の他に「super」と呼ばれる年金積立金を支払います。帰国時に「Departing Australia Superannuation Payment (DASP)」として申請すれば、積み立てたお金の一部を受け取ることができます。

🎭 新しい職場で、雇用主にTFNについて聞かれる場面
A (Koa):
Welcome to the team! Have you got your TFN yet?
B:
Yes, it was sent to me last week. I've written it down here.
A (Koa):
Great. I'll also need you to fill out this TFN declaration form.
B:
Sure. What information is needed on this form?
A (Koa):
Your full name, date of birth, and your TFN. It's pretty simple.
B:
I see. I've also been told that I need to choose a super fund. Is that right?
A (Koa):
That's correct. If you don't have a preferred one, we'll use our default fund.
B:
I don't have one yet, so the default fund sounds fine to me.
A (Koa):
No dramas. Your super will be paid on top of your regular wages.
B:
Thanks for explaining everything. I really appreciate it.
